Grass Valley K2 Dyno PA Configuration Manual v.1.0 - Manual (Page 26)

Creating a unique file system name and storage disk labels
K2 Dyno PA requires that the K2 Summit Production Client or K2 Solo Media Server
have a unique file system name and unique storage disk labels. When you make a new
file system the name changes to “gvfs_hostname”, where hostname is the name of the
stand-alone K2 system. (This is the computer name as set in Properties under My
Computer, not the name defined in the hosts table.) The file system name is case
sensitive.
As of K2 7.2, new systems ship with unique file system names and disk labels. If
upgrading a system to 7.2, the file system needs to be re-created using the Storage
Utility tool. This automatically creates unique names for the file system and the
disk storage labels. For more information on using Storage Utility, see the K2
System Guide. Once the K2 system has a file system name and disk labels that are
unique, proceed to “Ordering the network adapters for K2 Dyno PA”.

Ordering the network adapters for K2 Dyno PA
To enable the Browse feature, SNFS requires that the first network adapter on the K2
Summit Production Client or K2 Solo Media Server must be the Control connection;
the loopback adapter cannot be the first network adapter.
Prerequisites:
• The K2 7.2.x software must be installed and configured as specified in the K2
Summit documentation.
• The file system name and storage disk labels on the K2 Summit system need to be
unique. If the system has been upgraded to 7.2.x from an earlier version, the file
system must be re-created with the Storage Utility tool, as specified in the K2
System Guide.
To order the adapters, follow this procedure on the K2 Summit system.
1. Disable the write filter.
2. Reboot the machine.
3. Navigate to c:\snfs\config .
4. Edit the FsNameServers file to add a line containing the IP address of the Control
network for each K2 Summit system. Do not include any loopback IP addresses
in this file.
Tip: Identical FsNameServer files (same file name, same IP addresses
in the same order) must be located on all the Summits and Solos or Dyno
PA machine that shares the same Grass Valley platform service. If
